Mick Ferry’s New Comedy Podcast Launches

Comedian Mick Ferry has announced the launch of his new comedy podcast, Bunker Radio. A new, irreverent comedy podcast with a post-downfall-of-mankind twist, it will be hosted on the Forever Manchester Radio and Podcast Network, which has been established to promote Greater Manchester-based projects and artists, from Tuesday 5th September.

Bunker Radio Season One will comprise of six weekly episodes. Set in a post-apocalyptic bunker in the ruins of Manchester, Mick and a handful of survivors need a plan to rebuild society. Each week, with the help of his two Ministers, he will decide on new laws and standards for society, welcome new survivors in from the outside and vet them to see if they will become part of Mick’s bunker or if they will be cast back out into the unforgiving wasteland that was once humanity.

Mick Ferry, whose impressive CV includes BBC One’s Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow, regular Comedy Store appearances, part of the Foster’s award-winning Funz and Gamez show, and actor in Ken Loach’s 2009 film Looking For Eric. He comments: “We can’t wait to get this podcast aired, and the new Forever Manchester Network, which is focused on bringing forward new talent and ideas, seemed the ideal place to do it.”
